What is recorded here
Treharris Fire Station and training tower is a castle, fort or tower in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales. Perhaps the training tower still echoes with the footfalls of young firefighters learning to climb before they descend into danger. Maybe the castle-like shape is a local joke about bravery, where strength is measured in heights climbed rather than battles fought.
